Read In Defense of Internment, the Case for "Racial Profiling" in WWII and the War on Terror by Michelle Maklin for a look at why the "internment camps" were created in the first place. Ever hear of MAGIC?

There was no "ethnic cleansing" when it came to the evacuation and relocation of Japanese, Italians and Germans and other undesirables from the West Coast and proximity to Military installations/Naval bases.

Unfortunately history has already been rewritten when it comes to "American concentration camps" and Japanese racial discrimination.
